A New Year

Wow I had planned to get something posted on here within the first couple of days of the year, guess time flies when you're having fun. It amazes me sometimes how fast time can fly. People write these to get out their resolutions to set them out. I have my own and for the most part they are the same as normal lose weight get in better shape, yadda yadda yadda. I do however have a few more that I think are more realistic and personal.

The first of these is I need to be more attentive to my kids. I have found myself this past year taking care of their needs but not taking care of them. Yes I made sure they had food water shelter etc but I wouldn't always be there when they needed me, I want to spend more time teaching my kids how to do things. I want to help and give them the chance to have those opportunities I had as a kid. Playing catch with my kids, shooting hoops, going out and shooting guns stuff memories are made of. This last year I found myself in my chair curled up.

the second one is similar to the first I want and need to more attentive to my wife's personal needs. We the past year I have found myself not distancing myself but distancing myself. It wasn't until her friend passed away that I realized what was happening, don't get me wrong our relationship is good, but I want it to be great. I want to make it that way. I don't want to be her friends husband who lost his wife and can only reflect on what happened. I don't to chance having any regrets. how am going to do this I am not sure, I know more date nights is a good way but could use other suggestions if you have them.


So there you have my resolutions
Happy New Year!!!
